Why does the British West Africa penny coin have the Star of David on it when Israel wasn't formed until 1948?
The "Star of David" is a Jewish symbol, not exclusively an Israeli symbol, and references to the "Star of David" date back about a thousand years.
The symbol on the reverse of British West African Coins is described as a "hexagram" in coin catalogues, as distinct from the "Star of David".
The people of the countries formerly comprising British West Africa are mostly Christian or Muslim, with many of the remainder having traditional religions, so the "Star of David" is not very likely to appear on their coins as a religious symbol.
The significance of the "Hexagram" is not explained.
